RE: Hangar-9 Sopwith Camel Build Thread
I started the FA-80GK on the Camel today and it took a few spins to get her going. It was running rough but, before Icould get the needles set Inoticed fuel leaking from the plane. Iremoved the tank and found that it had split at the seam just below the stopper and was quickly leaking fuel into the interior. Ipulled that tank and tried to soak up as much fuel as I could. I replaced the tank with a smaller one that fit well but was a bit smaller. Once installed I noticed that the replacement tank was leaking at the stopper. I'm beginning to think this bird is under gremlin attack.
I ordered a new tank from Horizon today and am waiting for it to arrive. I'll post an update when I get it installed.
